Thomas Collum Violin Studio
4 Reviews
My teaching philosophy is centered around two main prerogatives: 1) to teach efficient, reliable, and healthy body mechanics (technique), which will ultimately maximize longevity, technical facility, and of course, musical expression; and 2) to teach students how to coach themselves the other six days of the week when I'm not around to reinforce and help them to retain new and recurring concepts. One can't truly learn something as nuanced and intricate as high-level violin technique without developing the skills to practice effectively and autonomously drive their own progress. Transferable to anything we do (not just violin), these skills ca

As a teacher, I strongly believe that developing a solid technical foundation is crucial in every student's development and plays a major role in their ability to play the instrument. Having strong fundamentals can then enable each student to grow musically and discover their own voice. My teaching style incorporates elements of both the Suzuki and Traditional methods, allowing for flexibility to fill each student's individual needs. My pedagogy instructors include Mimi Zweig and Rictor Noren.

Anyone Can Learn With My Method
It is completely untrue that some people are "born to sing or play an instrument" while others are not. Using my method, the most "tone deaf" can learn to sing perfectly in tune, the most nasal or unappealing sound can be transformed into the most beautiful resonant tone, and someone with "no talent" can become better than anyone out there. With this superb method when you finish singing your voice will feel better than when you started! All it takes is desire, patience, perseverance, and above all, practice. I also have a unique and very patient teaching style that can make learning any instrument seem eas

I have much personal musical experience in both teaching and performing and I know how to help others! I know how to teach technic, how to practice, how to train your thoughts to best prepare a performance under pressure.

I welcome students who are struggling with mental and emotional blocks in their musical learning path.
